What am I?!

Hey everyone! Need some help here with identifying this little girl! Bought her with a few black Australorps pullets at about a week old, started noticing she has feathers on her feet and she’s clearly not like the others, no tail feathers just yet but they’re starting to come in on her bum.
what are your thoughts? I think she’s about 5 weeks old

Midnight black Marans maybe. The tail makes me think cochin but my cochins did not have that many feathers at 5 weeks

Thanks! I’m honestly not sure how old they are. It’s possible they’re 4 weeks, maybe 6 weeks but looking at photos of other 6wk old Australorps, they’re combs were more developed so idk.... I’ve had them for just under 4 weeks, purchased 9/14 from tractor supply and they were in the “younger” bucket.

I'd say Cochin. This is one of mine:

I'm thinking Marans.

@Overo Mare

I am also thinking Cochin.

I believe Marans have slate colored shanks and white skin. Cochins have yellow shanks and skin.

Cochin mix. She has nowhere near the amount of feathering on those feet that even hatchery birds have.

What’s a shank?

Their leg colors I think.

Their leg colors I think.

Oh never mind it is apparently the bottom part of their legs, above the foot but below the hock.
